Kinda okay G#5

Today i was messing with high screams. I had only one kinda okay recording. ( I would not say it is good. )It is weird cause i think i am on good track regarding technique, but i still does not think it is a pleasant sound. Something is missing, or maybe too much.

If i hear it correctly, maybe the problem is the lack of ping and maybe too much raspiness.

Ahoy @Csesztes ... Some of the things that I might ask is:How did your voice feel after that? (are you able to continue on and sing normally?)How much volume are you applying? (a simple db meter will tell you this)How much air are you pushing to achieve that? (Were you using compression and carefully metering the flow?)Are you still able to sing your full range after that, or does it affect your range and/or ability to still sing clean and soft?

It really reminds me of the start of a song called "Soul Stealer" by Badlands (Voodoo Highway Album) Ray Gillen does it at 0:08 of the track. Pretty sure at its apex it is F#5 or G5... find it on YouTube and have a listen.I recently hit that with the same amount of breakup and duration. However, I made damned sure that I was in strict hyperglottal compression and that the volume wasn't any louder than my normal singing volume.

I did notice that I really had to focus to clean my vocals up after that, but luckily that song is grainy rock blues. (Like a higer-ranged Paul Rogers) Strategically I would try to keep the super clean songs near the front of the set, and the rock-growl ones near the end for this very reason

You should be able to do it unscathed if you focus on support and HG-Compression

On Tuesday, i was able to this, but i did not recorded it. Today's workout felt good, so i figured i give it a try.

I am still not 100% satisfied with the sound, but I am really happy, that it does not sound as edgy as my first attempt and it was not taxing on my throat at all. I was able to sing clean afterwards without any issue.

like you stumbled upon the right technique, I stumbled upon your post.

Man, I listened through your recordings and I am trying to find the right words ... it is ... AWESOME. That progress you made! And it is clearly to hear that you are knowing what you are doing. Congratulations! Very good job.

I bought the program May of last year, ever since then I worked out every single week at least 4-5 times a week. Currently I workout 5 times a week, one day I do VOL3, other day VOL4 workouts. I have been only doing VOL4 for a month though. Overall, I have been singing 3 years and 2 months now.

I still have a long way to go, but i am happy with the progress I made so far.
